Elizabeth Irias, LMFT outlines how it can be possible to write efficient and effective notes, while also not bogging yourself down with extra work that takes up your valuable time.

We therapists and social workers are told time and time again that our notes are legal documents, yet we often receive very little training about what actually needs to be in them.

Elizabeth Irias, LMFT addressed the VC CAMFT January General Meeting about how clinicians typically put themselves at risk, and how to minimize this risk by properly documenting our work.

As any Utilization Review (UR) clinician will tell you that pleading a client’s case with a managed care company can be an exhaustive, disconcerting process.

Whether born out of a keen eye for a need in the market, or for love of the mental health treatment game, behavioral health providers can stay ahead of the curve.
